Work Upon the State House Must Be Stopped
Unless that Amount Is Appropriated

Unless some provision is made by the present
LEGISLATURE, work upon the new State-house
must bs discontinued in March next, and cannot
be resumed until the August following. The re-
port of the Board of Commissioners, filed with
the Governor yesterday, shows that the total
amount of expenditure now contracted for is
nearly 81, 800. 900, and the amount already pro-
vided for falls short of the necessary sum about

amount in August, and by using that the work
may be recommended, though that tax is intend
ed to pay the unpaid per cent of work finished.
The Commissioners have expended about a

A Pleasant Enisnda.

A pleasant episode, which missed reportorial
attention during the past week, was the presen-
taton of an elegant gold badge to Mrs. Irwin
Robbins, the retiring president of the Ladies'
Relief Corps of the G. A. R. The speeches of
presentation and reception were of a happy
character, and Mrs. Robbins was quite overcome
by this pleasant token of esteem. The badge
bore the usual emblems of the order and was
manufactured by Mr.. John WINNER, No. 10

every detail and stamps its manufacturer as
skillful artisan. Mr.. WINNER is to be congratu
